Leo Burdock's has been Dublin's most famous chipper since 1913, operating from a small premises on Werburgh Street in the shadow of Christ Church Cathedral. The shop serves traditional Irish fish and chips — fresh cod and haddock fried in batter, with thick-cut chips — and has remained family-owned through five generations.
Quality and reputation have made it a benchmark for the Irish fish and chips experience. There is no seating; the ritual is to eat from the paper wrapping while walking. It closes earlier than many rivals, so arrive by early evening.
